Well I promised pics about 1.5 months ago when I first moved in to this new place. Since then I got really busy losing most of my bankroll to a horrible downswing followed by spewy play thanks to my destroyed soul. I'm finally getting around to this so let's have some fun =)
My GF and I live here in this nice cozy 2 bedroom "townhouse" which is pretty spacious but very old, outdated and inexpensive, which works out well for us. The only problem with it is that the walls are super thin and the heating vents connect with the other townhouses, so we hear every arguement our neighbors have (which is at least 1 a day) and whenever they smoke cigs or weed our house smells like second hand smoke. Nothing wrong with smoking here and there, but we get screwed with all of the downfalls and none of the benefits.
Otherwise it's pretty damn sweet. So let's do a quick tour! (Pics in the spoiler, and I even resized them this time!
+ Show Spoiler +

We start off with the kitchen where you can see the all essential cereal boxes on top of the fridge, our gigantic microwave that my dad gave us cause he was remodeling, and a nice view out to our neighbors. We live in brick townhouses... that feels kinda oldschool to me.
(pic died sry)
Here's another shot where you can see our old school oven and some momo's on the counter. My GF is Tibetan and makes the BEST Tibetan and Indian food (she grew up in India) and I help out here and there. We make good use outta this tiny kitchen and cook most nights of the week and eat like really fucking well. If I didn't have her with me I'd probably be on the fast food diet, hehe.

Here's the dining room table and back door. We rarely ever eat there - we prefer the coffee table in front of the TV. But if we have people over it's nice.

This is the downstairs bathroom. It's not the prettiest in the world (who thought of that yellow sink?) but it gets the job done and is yet to be clogged. Plunger is standing by just in case.

Here's our living room. Pretty basic but by far the nicest setup I've ever had since moving outta the P's house. The couch is really comfy too.

Same thing, different angle. You can see the front door here and the base of the stairs. TV and DVD player I got with FPP's off of Stars. That was pretty sweet.

Now we start making our way upstairs. You may have noticed all the pictures on the walls. My GF made her living as a photographer in India so we have a bunch of her pics framed on the walls. They're pretty damn amazing.

Upstairs bathroom and we get the BLUE sink and toilet - seriously, who painted this place? The bathrooms are a bit weak, and we wish we had the storage space under the sinks, but it all works well. Hot water never runs out and is included in the rent, so hello to long hot showers!

My office where I lose large amounts of money playing poker.

You mave have noticed all this shit on the wall in the far corner, so here's a closeup. This is my "Poker Wall" which I made when I first started playing. Basically I took a shit load of notes when reading books/articles. It helped me get the basics down. I also made notes when I fucked up and have a bunch of reminders about shit not to do, heh. Lot's of hand charts too, though I never used like half of em. I Don't use it too often anymore but it's good for a quick refresher.

And finally the bedroom. The bed looks tiny in this pic, but it's definitely a decent size. If you've got really good eyes you'll probably see the sklasky NL holdem book on the stand by the bed. Started re-reading that the other night cause I've been sucking it up so badly I figured I needed to remind myself of the basics.

So that's it for the house, but here's some other pics I had laying around that I wanted to post - Think I might be reposting some but oh well. This one is me, duh.

This is the beautiful girlfriend!

Us together in India.... the most important part of this is that I am wearing my CTU shirt. Rock on!

And we close with a pic of me dancing with some Indian woman in the middle of a crazy drum circle in a slum we were working. I was trying to copy her moves, which ended up being really funny to them cause she was doing "female" and the guys just aren't supposed to do em. What the hell do I know about Indian dancing??
Ok, that's all for today guys. Hope it wasn't too boring!

Yeah, I'm learning ^^
Thanks for comments guys. Cody, if you're ever in CO that couch can become your bed for a night or two and we can do some serious poker sessions ^^ |
